But it’s the functional equation that sets the stage for focusing on zeroes of the Riemann zeta function with Re ( s) = 1 / 2 … and then the Riemann Hypothesis! So it’s worth thinking about. Hope ...

Earlier this month the Mathematics Institute at Uppsala University hosted a conference called Categorification in Algebra and Topology, clearly a theme close to our collective heart. As yet there are ...

This is the homepage for the UT Geometry and Quantum Field Theory Seminar. At the organizational meeting we will flesh out the details of our plans for the semester. Below are some suggestions to get ...

I don’t really think mathematics is boring. I hope you don’t either. But I can’t count the number of times I’ve launched into reading a math paper, dewy-eyed and eager to learn, only to have my ...

The study of monoidal categories and their applications is an essential part of the research and applications of category theory. However, on occasion the coherence conditions of these categories ...

Freeman Dyson is a famous physicist who has also dabbled in number theory quite productively. If some random dude said the Riemann Hypothesis was connected to quasicrystals, I’d probably dismiss him ...

The following is the greatest math talk I’ve ever watched! Etienne Ghys (with pictures and videos by Jos Leys), Knots and Dynamics, ICM Madrid 2006. [See below the fold for some links.] I wasn’t ...

Back to modal HoTT. If what was considered last time were all, one would wonder what the fuss was about. Now, there’s much that needs to be said about type dependency, types as propositions, sets, ...
